It does not matter why or how you ended up in this mess. The bottom line is that your jobs have been replaced. I, myself, have gone through each of the emotions that have been represented on this thread.
Blaming loose scope, management, Delta, cheap competitors, etc. It does not matter. Identify your blame and rationalization for what it is...denial. Then focus on getting the best job you can with the skills you have.
Most of the pilots at Comair who used their time wisely were able to land on their feet pretty well. The ones that were in denial until the last day of work are still unemployed. Good luck, full pay until the last day, and F.U. Delta Management, I will never forget!
This is one of the most level headed posts I have read on this forum. I strongly encourage everyone at Pinnacle to keep this statement in mind when planning your next move.
You don't want to be caught with your pants down when the music stops.
